If the opponent has lower rank than you, the rank you get will be lower. And for higher, it works the same way. However, it is hard to find opponents with similar or higher rank than me.

If my rank is 4500,

When battling ppl with 1000 rank or below, I get about +0 to +1 from winning.

Around 1000-1500 area, I get 2 most of the time.

I started to get real ranks around 2700, where I got about 10 when winning.

If the opponent has same ranking as me, it is about 35-45 for winning.

It works like this. That's why many people at top 20, including Cydon26, use their alt account to boost their ranks.
